Call for Consensus to Publish a Group Note- RESPONSE REQUESTED by 13 July 2020

Dear Web Payments Working Group Participants,

The following document has not been discussed or edited substantively since September 2016:

   Web Payments HTTP Messages 1.0
   https://www.w3.org/TR/webpayments-http-messages/

I received an email from the W3C Systems Team asking if we could
officially retire it by publishing it as a "Group Note." After
discussion with the co-Chairs, this is a Call for Consensus to publish
that specification as a Group Note.

PLEASE RESPOND to the proposal by 13 July 2020 (10am ET).

For the co-Chairs,
Ian Jacobs

=========
PROPOSAL

That the Web Payments Working Group request that the W3C Director
approve publication of Web Payments HTTP Messages 1.0 as a Group Note.

Please indicate one of the following in your response:

1. Support the proposal.

2. Request some changes, but support the proposal even
   if suggested changes are not taken into account.

3. Request some changes, and do not support the proposal
   unless the changes are taken into account.

4. Do not support the proposal (please provide rationale).

5. Support the consensus of the Web Payments Working Group.

6. Abstain.

We invite you to include rationale in your response.

If there is strong consensus by 13 July 2020 (10am ET) for the
proposal, it will carry.


==========================
Formal Objections

* If you wish your LACK of support to publish to be conveyed to the
 Director and reviewed, please include the phrase "FORMAL OBJECTION"
 in your response and be sure to include substantive arguments or
 rationale. The W3C Director takes Formal Objections seriously, and
 therefore they typically require significant time and effort to
 address.

* Silence will be taken to mean there is no Formal Objection.

* If there are Formal Objections, the Chairs plan to contact the
 individual(s) who made them to see whether there are changes that
 would address the concern and increase consensus to publish.
